I will have multiple forums with multiple moderators (hopefully) one per forum. I have seen old topics where the discussion of this functionality will be coming in v. 2.5 but I don’t see it at all. I know there is BuddyPress Moderation plugin but it can’t specify specific users.

Is there another plugin out there that will satisfy this requirement?

We’ve started making some progress in 2.6 using a custom taxonomy to map usernames to forums, but I’m not 100% convinced it’s the right way to go.

It might make a good plugin to start. I’ll see what kind of effort that takes, and report back here what I’m able to come up with.

Thanks John. In the meantime do you see a work around?

@casiepa

I can set a single moderator per forum, but can’t seem to set several

tried

user1

that worked

but

user1, user2

doesn’t

nor does

user 1 user2

any ideas?

[@shland01 Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

This isn’t working for me. I installed the 2.6 rc3 after having 2.5.14 installed. I set one user who is just has a participant role as the moderator of a forum in the forum editing screen, but that user is not able to see the topics in the admin UI in order to moderate them.

Is there anything else I need to do to enable this?

[@robin-w Moderator 6 years, 11 months ago]

I haven’t got 2.6rc3 live at the moment as I’m tied up supporting the live version. However I’d guess that moderator support per forum is front end only, as they’ll have a participant role when you access the backend.

I presume that the user is participant and sees no options for topics and replies in the admin section – yes ?

[@krioteh Participant 6 years, 10 months ago]

I’m testing version 2.6rc5 – everything works, moderators are added.
You need to enter: “user1, user2, user3”

They do not have access to the backend (this is superfluous …).

All actions with topics and answers (moving, splitting, merging, approval, etc.) are available from the frontend.

Hello,
I entered the username, username in the Forum Moderator meta box but when saved it strips all but the first one in the list. Am I missing something?
